Free: Volatility Normalized MACD-V

Awhile back I had a trader email requesting I code this indicator for Thinkorswim. At the time I wasn’t able to get to it, and I’ve subsequently lost the email, so I thought I would put this out there in the universe in case he happens to run across it here, and in case anyone else can use it.

And here’s the research paper with the details:

“The output of the indicator is
the amount of momentum a security has,
that is in excess of its average volatility,
expressed as a percentage.
We are measuring directional strength,
“purified” from volatility fluctuations”
